This morning's Ride with Tommy! was in part a celebration of Trent's birthday! Happy birthday Trent! Thanks for your support of the Ride with Tommy! It is such a pleasure having you in class. Thanks for your energy and dedication! Many of the songs played in class this morning were requests made by Trent of his favorite songs. I enjoyed putting this track list together. I hope everyone had a great time as they worked hard and made a positive difference in their bodies, their minds and their workouts! Let's keep making those changes! Let's keep celebrating the years that we add to our lives! Let's keep making those added years full of health and happiness! Yes, it all can start right here in a Ride with Tommy! There's so much to celebrate in life. There is so much good in the world. Let's not get caught up in all that can go wrong. Let's focus on the positive, on what we can do to make life better for ourselves and for others! Work hard to create that positive energy in class which can lead to positive changes in yourself. Then, share that positive energy with others. We can all make a difference in the world. Let's make that difference a positive one! One that can improve your life and the lives of the people around you. I try to create the environment in my classes that is conducive to making positive change. I want riders to look forward to the Ride, to look forward to an intense workout. I also want riders to trust that the ride will be safe, form-focused and fun! That's right, an intense workout that is fun. I choose music that hopefully almost everyone in class may know or recognize (yes, songs with lyrics! words, not just beats!) Feel free to sing along! Having fun will make the time that you are working out move so much faster. Before you know it, class will be over and you will be feeling the results of an intense, form-focused and fun Ride! Celebrate those results! Share the positive energy! Celebrate your birthday! Work (and workout) hard so that you can enjoy life even more! I will do my best to help you make it happen! I hope to see you in class soon! Until then, in good health and with a great attitude...tommy

18 years. I have had the honor, the pleasure, the job of teaching indoor cycling for 18 years! I taught my first class on August 2, 1998 at Todd Tramp's BodySculpting LA on the northeast corner of La Cienega Boulevard and Melrose Avenue. I worked behind the front desk there. I managed the gym (a personal training gym) and then managed the indoor cycling program. I started teaching there and since then have taught at many gyms across Los Angeles. Not long after that initial class, I started teaching at Crunch Fitness on the world famous Sunset Strip in Hollywood, CA, where I still teach today. I am thankful for Kendell Hogan who believed enough to hire me at Crunch, has had my back and still supports my instruction there today! I have gone on to teach at Equinox, Gold's, Sportivo, Meridien and Universal Studios. I have taught alongside Todd Tramp, Andrea Lawent (Made In LA Fitness), Debby Rocker, Janet Fitzgerald (SoulCycle), John Terlingo (Terlingo Cycle - Dallas, TX), Jim Barcena, Stacey Griffith (SoulCycle), Bob Harper (The Biggest Loser), Nick Hounslow (Cycle House, E! Television's "Hollywood Cycle"). I have led classes in which Nicole Kidman, Christina Applegate, Queen Latifah, Lisa Rinna, George Wendt, Angie Everhart, Ryan Seacrest, (just to name a few) were in attendance. And a lot has changed since that first class. I got married to the love of my life, Rich Vaughn. We have 8-year old twin boys, Aiden & Austin. I have gone from teaching 14-15 classes a week at 3-4 different gyms to currently teaching just 4 classes a week exclusively at Crunch Fitness - Sunset. But most of all, I am so proud and grateful to have had the opportunity to help people live happier, healthier lives. I stayed true to my beliefs as an instructor, believing that a focus on form and fun, safety and intensity, and a variety of challenges and music help to make the best class possible that produces the best and most results possible. When I started, I had no idea that 18 years later I would still be teaching. Now, I can't imagine my life having not been an instructor. I have made friendships that have lasted and will last a lifetime. I have learned, grown and changed for the better. And I'm not done yet. I have so many people that still inspire me. I still have goals to reach. There are still milestones to achieve. Thanks to everyone who has supported me along my journey. And if you haven't tried a class yet, what are you waiting for?!?! I hope to see you in class soon! In good health, tommy
